Ruby, do you think the speed difference between the Intel G2 and the next gen of SSDs will even be perceptible in the real world? I guess I'm wondering if SATA III support will really matter and be noticeable over a SATA II drive.

Definitely not. The only drive that has the same "feel" in snap (compared to the Intel) would be the Crucial RealSSD. It has NOTHING to do with the fact that Crucial is using a SATA 6Gbps interface. If transfer rate is your thing it can help however this matters little IMO because folks that need high STR are going to be striping lots of these drives on a real host. :)

The Crucial C300 seems to get lots of kudos. The 128 GB model is more expensive than the Intel. Decisions, decisions.

I would go with the Intel. It just plain works. Had them in laptops, desktops, workstations, servers, you name it. Not one issue. Even have one with the plastic rim broken from getting dropped and trampled on. Drive still works perfectly. :eek:

I took that as a senior. IIRC, it was a 1 credit hour course and was EE401 or something like that. It was easy. Don't sweat it.

I'm not worried about it, although it's a standard three credit course here. Just mildly concerned about getting off the wait list for it. It looks stupidly easy.

Engineering Ethics is supposed to be a junior level course, but there's no pre-reqs, and besides, it's a philosophy course. Lulz.
